The call for poster abstracts submissions is now closed for the upcoming meeting. Poster abstract submitters will be notified by email of decisions by early August. Please note, the presenting author (e.g., poster abstract submitter) must be registered for the meeting to present their poster. Please also note that the early registration deadline.
All submitted abstracts will be reviewed for clarity, scientific impact, and integrity. Abstract submissions must be relevant to the topics within critical and point-of-care testing. Submitters of the top poster abstract submissions will be invited to present their work as a 15-minute oral presentation to an audience of thought-leaders and peers in addition to displaying their poster(s) during the meeting. All accepted posters will be published as a supplement in AACC’s online peer-reviewed publication, The Journal of Applied Laboratory Medicine (JALM). Additional details on poster preparation will be provided after notices are sent in early August.
Please contact [email protected] with any poster abstract questions.
